Good morning Home School! 
Morning work
Use your purple pens to mark your work from yesterday. The answers are in the homework section of the website.
Get your journals and copy and complete as many questions as you can. Think about quick ways to work out the answers. You might need to use a different method for each question. Is multiplication commutative? (e.g. 4x2=2x4)

Y1 & Y2 Listen to the song One Moment One People
1) Draw around your hand.

3) Decorate the hand and the space around it.
4) If you can, take a picture and send it to me.

Get some real 1p, 2p and 5p coins. If you can't find any then make some. Draw small circles for 1p and 5p coins and a larger circle for 2p coins. Cut them out and make 6 of each type of coin. Now roll a dice. That is how much money you need to put into your pretend purse. Which coins will you use? Is there a different way to do it? Roll the dice again. You could play with someone else in your family. Can you both make the right amount of money using different coins?
Find and complete the next sheet in your Money Practice booklet. It should say 'Draw 5p in each purse'. You have to do it a different way each time. Use coins to have a go before you draw in the purses.

Topic 
Look around your house or farm. I wonder how things have changed over the years. What did people do before we had televisions, computers, phones, washing machines, cars, electric or gas cookers? What can you find out? Try helping your family to cook dinner and imagine what it would have been like without your electric or gas cooker. Offer to hoover your bedroom. How would children have cleaned their bedroom without a hoover?
What would you invent to make things easier?
Other Things
What else are you doing at Home School? If you see a good idea then you could try it too.

A flag made by leaf bashing. What a great idea from Forest Schools.
